Infographic Design for magazine spread (via oh shannonnnn)



The numbers used for this are from:

An anti-smoking organisation
2006
Just saying.

Also, I still don’t understand how representing quantity with scaled down little icons of guns and cigarettes (that aren’t even consistently-sized!) is especially helpful, and I love how the little cigarettes are spaced much further apart, artificially increasing their perceived size and shock value.

And Heather informs me that statistics like this are usually collected from cohort studies which are not especially reliable.

Further commentary here.
